Recently, a colleague informed me that in a banking seminar, the instructor spoke repeatedly about the repeal of Dodd Frank, and that they felt certain that it was going to happen, based on recent happenings in legislature. Now... I know lots of bankers that wouldn't mind a repeal, but I have heard no official grumblings from Congress regarding an appeal. Is there any merit to this rumor, or is it just wishful thinking?

I think it's some major wishful thinking. I haven't heard or read anything credible about this even being discussed in Washington.

The owner of this bank has had colleagues (mostly lawyers) say the same thing....and is pretty convinced.

It makes my life so much harder! crazy

A colleague of mine went to a seminar recently and the speaker indicated we are one election cycle away from regulatory relief. There is a lot of wishful thinking going on out there.

There are a number of regulatory relief initiatives "out there." Whether any of them will be successful is anyone's guess. But I don't for a minute believe we'll see anything approaching a repeal of Dodd-Frank.

As my dear grandmother used to say, wishes in one hand and XXXX in the other.....

With the gridlock in Washington continuing, nothing meaningful can be accomplished.

Just remember Pale, it was with "gridlock in Washington" in place at the time that this handful of XXXX got passed in the first place... grin

here is an interesting take on the results of this legislation so far....

compliance folk - it's their fault!

3,000 more Compliance Officers at JP Morgan Chase for a total of 10,000 Compliance Officers at that institution?! shocked I don't believe it...not to point any fingers back at myself, but where will they find 3,000 more people who are dumb enough to decide to become Compliance Officers in this day and age...? laugh
